    David O'Brien and the ADP

    On this episode, maybe our best episode to date, Joel speaks to Laurie O'Brien, father of David, about her son and her family's experience with Ontario's Assistive Devices Program and Motion Assistive Devices. Laurie's story is powerful and moving and is a reminder that our provincial government, and our society broadly, must do better in supporting Ontarians with disabilities.  We begin the episode with an examination of the Assistive Devices Program as well as the damning Auditor General's report on the program.  You can read our letter to Motion here.

    Putting People Before Profits in LTC Part 2

    On this episode, we feature another excerpt from our wonderful Town Hall on the state of Long Term Care in Ontario. The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the worst consequences of our province's mismanaged, privatized long term care system. We talk to Dr. Vivian Stamatopoulos, a professor at Ontario Tech University and a LTC advocate, Georgette Morris, a researcher and coordinator with Jaku Konbit Ottawa and Lynn Steele,  founder of the Canadian PSW Network. We're trying this new thing where Joel has fewer monologues and talks to me (producer Kieran) instead.  Did you like the show? Do you have issues you'd like us to discuss on  an upcoming episode?

    Putting People before Profits in Long Term Care

    On this episode, we feature an excerpt from our wonderful Town Hall on the state of Long Term Care in Ontario. The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the worst consequences of our province's mismanaged, privatized long term care system. We talk to Dr. Vivian Stamatopoulos, a professor at Ontario Tech University and a LTC advocate, Georgette Morris, a researcher and coordinator with Jaku Konbit Ottawa and Lynn Steele, founder of the Canadian PSW Network. I (producer Kieran) included some Bessie Smith because, as my professor used to say, the blues are about feeling good about feeling bad, and I think we've all been feeling a little bad lately.  Did you like the show?

    My World's on Fire, How 'Bout Yours?

    On this episode, the whole office team got together for an impromptu panel discussion about our COVID-19 perspectives, the recent Capitol conflagration, and right-wing extremism in Canada. I hope you brought your flame-resistant pants, because we dish out our hot takes on a world that seems to be catching.  FACT CHECK: We recorded this episode earlier this week, prior to the release of new information regarding the events at the Capitol Building in D.C. and prior to the provincial Stay At Home Order. Initial reports indicated that police had opened the barricades at Capitol Hill, but that has been contested and remains unconfirmed. Police did however leave their posts at certain barricades, allowing the protesters to pass. See: https://www.newsweek.com/capitol-police-didnt-open-gates-rioters-viral-video-1559728 It was erroneously stated that Ashli Babbitt was shot by the US Secret Service. Capital Police have confirmed that it was a plainclothes Capitol Police officer who shot Ms. Babbitt.  Did you like our different episode format?
